Pravha
❤️
A
Hoxton
pub
with
historic
value.
.
The
Macbeth
is
located
towards
the
lower
end
of
Hoxton
Street
in
the
heart
of
Hoxton.
The
nearest
station
is
Hoxton
overground,
Old
Street
tube
is
also
close
by.
.
This
place
started
life
as
a
gin
distillery
early
in
the
19th
century,
if
you
look
towards
the
top
of
the
building
you
will
see
the
words
Hoxton
Distillery
built
into
the
parapet.
This
pubs’s
original
name
was
The
White
Hart
up,
in
1978
it
changed
to
the
Macbeth
and
since
then
the
name
has
seesawed
between
the
two
names.
.
The
decor
here
is
traditional
with
some
contemporary
twists.
The
absolute
stand
out
feature
is
the
mural
of
a
scene
from
Shakespeare's
tragedy
Macbeth,
this
Victorian
tiled
mural
dates
back
to
the
1880’s.
This
place
is
well
worth
a
visit
just
to
see
this
historic
artwork
alone.
.
The
beer
choice
was
very
limited
to
just
five
keg
options.
The
were
lots
of
cocktail
shakers
on
the
bar
and
a
multitude
of
spirits
behind
the
jump
which
eludes
to
the
clientele
this
pub
is
geared
up
to.
I
had
a
pint
of
Pravha
which
was
a
decent
pint
and
under
£6.
.
I
arrived
around
4pm
on
the
Friday
before
Christmas
and
it
was
very
quiet
and
I
had
the
place
to
myself.
I
got
chatting
to
the
very
nice
chap
behind
the
bar
who
was
pottering
around
checking
everything
was
in
place
for
the
evenings
trade.
The
playlist
here
was
indie
classics,
this
was
perforated
now
and
again
by
a
soundcheck
going
on
by
promoter’s
who
were
prepping
for
an
upcoming
event.
This
place
really
comes
to
life
in
the
evenings.
.
@themacbeth
is
not
what
you
would
call
a
traditional
pub
and
markets
itself
as
a
music,
arts
and
events
pub.
Would
I
recommend
a
visit
here?
100%
I
would,
this
building
is
part
of
Hoxton’s
history
and
has
survived
when
so
many
pubs
close
by
have
closed
their
doors
for
good.
If
you’re
planning
a
visit
here
I
would
recommend
to
visit
early
if
you’re
a
traditionalist
and
later
if
you
fancy
music
and
cocktails.
